This was originally a plugin I made for personal use. Suggestions for additional features or improvements are welcome.<\/p>\n
### Main Features<\/p>\n
**Automatic ID Assignment**
\nWhen a player joins the server for the first time, the plugin automatically assigns them a unique, incrementing ID. The process is fully automatic and does not require any administrator intervention.<\/p>\n
**Welcome Message**
\nWhen a player joins the server, the plugin sends them a welcome message displaying their assigned ID. The content of this message can be customized in the configuration file.<\/p>\n
**Persistent Storage**
\nAll player IDs are saved to a file. Even after a server restart, players will retain their assigned IDs.<\/p>\n
### PlaceholderAPI Variables<\/p>\n
* `%playerid_id%` \u2014 Displays the player’s own ID (can be used in scoreboards, tab lists, holograms, etc.)
\n* `%playerid_{id}%` \u2014 `{id}` refers to the player’s ID and returns the corresponding player name<\/p>\n
### External API Usage<\/p>\n
“`java
\nint playerId = PlayerIDCounter.getPlayerId(player.getUniqueId());
\n“`<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
